Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Whole wheat burger buns (for serving)
Instructions
- Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, crumbled feta cheese, chopped parsley, diced red onion, minced garlic, and dried oregano.
- Step 2: Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Use your hands or a spatula to gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined.
- Step 3: Divide the turkey mixture into equal portions and shape them into patties about 1 inch thick.
- Step 4: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or oil. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Step 5: Remove the burgers from the heat and let them rest for a couple of minutes. Serve on whole wheat burger buns with your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato, or tzatziki sauce. Enjoy!
Notes
- For optimal freshness, store leftover turkey burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- When reheating, place the burgers in a skillet over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes per side, or use a microwave for quick warming, ensuring they reach an internal temperature of 165°F again.
- Serve these delicious feta turkey burgers on whole wheat buns topped with crispy lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and a drizzle of tangy tzatziki sauce for a refreshing twist.
- For maximum flavor, let the burger mixture chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before shaping the patties; this allows the ingredients to meld beautifully together.
